But all he had to do was admire the night sky.
I'm not gonna lie, it was a wonderful sight to see him with that love in his eyes. It just hurt. I don't know why.
// Little did i know it was the last time i was seeing him. //
----------
It's been a year, i still haven't seen him.
I miss him.
I write a text to him:
Dear //soulmate//,
// I've started seeing the stars with the same spark in my eyes that i once saw in yours. //
Ever since you left, more like i left, i've started seeing the world with a new vision. I'm not gonna lie, i still love the moon like i used to. I've just been seeing the stars with something else in my eyes--something new--since we broke apart.
I see why you love them so much. I see them through your eyes. Thankyou for giving me this beautiful vision of a gift. Thankyou for teaching me how to love despite time and distance.
I love you.
// I'm not embarrassed to write this, neither do i have to care about the grammar, punctuation, or order of this text/words, etc. //
I wanna tell you what i see when i look at the sky in one of those dark black nights.
I see your first love. // And i hope you see the moon with the same vision. I hope you see my first love, too. //
I see what you saw: infinity.
I see it (your love. Or my love for you? It's a metaphor for my love: the stars) being so free, not owing anything to me.
I see myself owing everything to it (to your first love. To my love for you).
I see myself relating your first love (stars) to my last love (you).
It's a metaphor (i learned it from Augustus Waters. Silly, i know).
And i love you like you love the stars.
I love you more than i have ever loved the moon.
I love you like Augustus Waters loved Hazel Grace. // Fearless, hopeless, and sacrificing. //
I love you more than you could (ever) love me.
I love you, soulmate.
I love you.
And like John Green says in An Abundance of Katherines, "You can love someone so much... But you can never love someone as much as you miss them." // Directly quoting. //
I miss you more than i could ever love you.
I miss you like Hazel Grace will miss Augustus Waters for her whole lifetime.
And i hope you feel the same towards the moon.
And i hope you miss me too.
And i hope you still love me.
And i hope you know i've made so many mistakes in my life, and i've no one to tell them to (and i think you're one of them).
And i hope you know all of this. All of it.
And i hope you pray for us like i do, and i hope you pray for me like i pray for you.
I hope you'll move across the world to marry me.
Until then,
i'm waiting.
And i'm praying it stays.
Only yours,
your soulmate.
PS: I hope it's not too cheesy for you. <3
I backspace everything.
And i cry.
I cry for the whole night.
The next day, like everyday, i put on a fake face with a smile on it and continue with my life.
Without you.
THE END.
NO, FUGGING, HAPPY, ENDING, IN, REAL, LIFE.
Ask me honestly? I'm over it. It never ends well. :")
